Health, Fitness and Strip Clubs: My Experience with Testosterone Boosters

INTRODUCTION Just like most people, I enjoy multiple hobbies. It just so happens that two of my favorite hobbies are exercising and visiting strip clubs. I first started weight training at age 15, as part of an off-season conditioning program to get ready for football. I’ve been going to strip clubs since age 27. Over the years, I have discovered that exercising and strip clubbing are hobbies that compliment each other, especially if you take supplements. It was shortly after my 18th birthday that I bought a supplement for the first time. It was a very well known essential in the bodybuilding community, whey protein powder. Shortly after, I began using creatine and a multivitamin. If I hit a plateau in my workouts, I would temporarily take a pre-workout to get passed the plateau, and then cycle off of it. When I was a young adult in my 20’s, I had moments where I lost motivation and quit exercising. After gaining several inches on my waistline, I’d eventually find the motivation to get back into shape. Between ages 20-32, I went through 3, maybe 4 cycles, where I’d get into shape, fall out of shape and then get back into shape again. BRING ON THE T-BOOSTERS Right around age 29, after completing a cycle where I got myself back into shape, I decided to try a category of supplements I had never tried before. It was something that promises the world to every man alive. These products claim that they will help build lean muscle, increase strength, improve performance, and boost libido. These products are none other that testosterone boosters. There are literally hundreds (maybe even thousands) of different testosterone boosters on the market. The cheapest one I’ve tried costs only $10, Six Star Testosterone Booster, which is sold at Walmart. The results I’ve gotten from this product are what you’d expect for the price, absolutely not effective at all. The most expensive testosterone booster I’ve tried is Nugenix Maxx, which costs $170 and is only sold in GNC stores. Nugenix Maxx is not a bad product, but I have tried testosterone boosters less than half the price that are just as effective. The main reason I first tried a testostetone booster was because I wanted to build muscle. Among the products I’ve tried, nothing has changed my body composition. A few have helped me increase my lifts slightly, but after a week or so, the gains suddenly stopped. The most noticeable effect I’ve noticed when taking testosterone boosters is that my sex drive goes through the roof. The first product I tried where I noticed a big boost in libido was a product called Anotest. It was produced by MuscleTech and has been discontinued for about 5 years now. It is a product I miss greatly. The second product I tried where I greatly noticed a boost in libido was Nugenix Ultimate, which is still produced to this day. Like it’s cousin Nugenix Maxx, it is only sold in GNC stores. The main difference is that Ultimate is only half the price of Maxx, and in my opinion, has a better ingredient profile than Maxx. THE MOMENT I REALIZED THERE IS A SUPPLEMENT FOR BOTH FITNESS AND STRIP CLUBBING About 2 years ago, I completed my most recent cycle where I got myself back into shape. I decided that from here on out, I will let nothing get in the way of living a clean and healthy lifestyle. For over 2 years now, I have kept my body in good, physical shape. A lot of men my age would be jealous of how good I look. It was Fall 2016 when I saw a commercial on TV that had me motivated to take on a new challenge. It was a commercial to sign up for 5K run/walk. I began training like crazy. My workout consisted of weight training on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and running 3.1 miles on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. I left Sunday open to be a rest day. After a couple of months of going through my training routine, I began using Nugenix Ultimate again. With Ultimate I would use it in a cycle of 1 month on followed by 1 month off, per the instructions printed on the bottle. It was Sunday, April 23, 2017, the day of the 5K race I signed up for. I felt confident enough to lineup in the group that runs at a pace of 8 minutes per mile. As I waited in anticipation, I felt a huge adrenaline rush just by seeing a bunch of people around me. The feeling of having competition and something to prove had pushed me to accomplish something many people don’t believe they are able to. Once I crossed the starting line, I ran the entire way. Half way through the race, there was a station to stop and get water. However, I did not dare stop because I wanted to finish in the fastest time I possibly could. After I crossed the finish line, I checked the time and saw that I finished in a time of 22:49. For comparison, every single time I ran while training for the race, I never had a time under 25 minutes. When I checked the race results online, I was on the first page. I had the 49th fastest time. I had the 4th fastest time among men in the 30-34 age group. I thought this was an amazing accomplishment considering I never ran a 5K before. It turns out both before and after the race, the combination of intense training and supplementing with Nugenix Ultimate had me feeling like a horny teenager again. I went on several binges where I went to strip clubs more often than I usually do. During this time, I found a dancer that enticed me to go to the club just to see her. She was new to this club, and it was a non-extras club. My visits would end with an LDK. However, the more I went to see her, the longer it took for me to LDK. She always had the effect where I would get instant erections from just looking at her. It just so happens after a few visits, the time it took to LDK doubled, and then tripled. To this day, I believe that the Nugenix Ultimate greatly increased my stamina. Eventually, these effects escalated to the need to have real sex, and therefore I started going to clubs that are extras-friendly. WHAT I’VE FOUND OUT THROUGH A YEAR’S WORTH OF READING REVIEWS AND RESEARCH There are literally dozens of ingredients that are commonly found in testosterone booster stacks. Some of them are essential vitamins and minerals. Others are herbs and amino acids. It turns out a lot of the common herbal ingredients have scientific studies to show they don’t boost testosterone, but do boost libido. Here is a quick summary of some common ingredients and what scientific research says. Vitamin D - Essential for testostrone health. Men with low testosterone are usually deficient in Vitamin D Zinc - The most important mineral for testosterone health. Boron - This mineral has some science to show that in just 7 days it boosts testosterone and lowers estrogen. D-Aspartic Acid - Studies have mixed results. One study where subjects supplemented with 3,120mg had shown a 42% increase in testosterone in just 12 days. In other studies, supplementing with 3 grams showed no increase in testosterone after 30 days, and supplementing with 6 grams showed a decrease in testosterone after 30 days. Fenugreek - There is only really one study that supports an increase in testosterone, and it was funded by the company that produces a patented version of fenugreek called Testofen. Fenugreek is claimed to boost “free” testosterone by blocking the enzymes that convert testosterone to estrogen. It is also known as a libido booster. Ashwaghanda - This herb has a lot of science to back up its claims as a testosterone booster. It helps the body maintain a healthy balance between testosterone and cortisol. Cortisol is the stress hormone, and when you are stressed, mentally or physically, your testosterone levels drop. Ashwaghanda also has solid science that shows that it can increase muscle size and strength as well as boost sperm health. When looking for a supplement with ashwaghanda, it is recommended to look for it in the patented form known as KSM-66. Tongkat Ali - This herb is native to Malaysia and for centuries has been used as a libido booster. It does have some science to show it helps the body maintain a healthy balance between testosterone and cortisol, but more research is needed Diindolylmethane - Also known as DIM, this substance is sourced from cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower. It is well known for estrogen metabolism. It blocks aromatase, the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into estrogen. As a result, DIM indirectly boosts testosterone. Tribulus Terrestris - This herb is often sold as a stand-alone supplement. For several decades this herb has been marketed as a testosterone booster. Science shows it only works in men that have really low testosterone. If you have healthy testosterone levels, the only benefit you will get is a boost in libido. Maca - Science says that this herb does not boost testosterone, but it is good for sperm health, and is a well known libido booster Horny Goat Weed - This is yet another herb in which science says it does not boost testosterone, but does boost libido. CONCLUSION All of the ingredients mentioned above have appeared in the many testosterone boosters that I have tried. Based on the information I provided above, I do believe that a testosterone booster can indeed enhance your enjoyment of strip clubs.
